Clarence the Candymaker rubbed his hands gleefully. Today, he would introduce the world to a whole new kind of Valentine's Day candy. This is not an ordinary candy. This candy changes flavors! It will change flavors to your favorite Valentine's Day candy. From Sweet'ish Hearts to lovable Gum Drops, this candy will change flavors for whatever your heart desires. Then Clarence thought to himself, "what will I do with all the money?" He knew what he was going to do. He was going to use the money to make a better candy for next year. Finally, when the big day came, his first customer arrived! The customer said, "can I buy one of your flavor-changing candies?" Clearance said, "YES! Of course you can!" Eventually Clarance realized that that person was a critic and that his candy was going global! Now Clarance's candy is the biggest selling Valentine's Day candy ever invented!
Directions:
Choose one of the following prompts and respond thoroughly. This should be a developed paragraph with meaningful supportive details. Let's see at least one semicolon use, too!

1. You’re at the doctor’s office for a regular check up when the doctor suggests you get a flu shot as well. You hate shots, so you come up with the most outlandish excuse as to why you can’t get one. Start your story with “You’re not going to believe this, but … ” and end it with “And that’s why I can’t get a flu shot today.” Be sure to correctly punctuate any dialogue. This response should be at least 10 sentences long. Remember to use a semicolon.

I walked into the doctors office for a regular check up. It was then that I realized it was flu shot time. They gave me a check up and said, "you are looking great Billy, just one more thing." I knew that she was going to say, flu shot. She said "It is time for your flu shot." My mind was racing. I said “You’re not going to believe this, but I am taking medicine because; of a mining accident in Alaska. While mining in Alaska a drop of arsenic got on my skin and in my mouth. The hospital gave me some medicine and told me that I can't have a flu shot while taking it. “And that’s why I can’t get a flu shot today.” Then she shot back with. "Thats okay Billy i'll sign you up for a month and a half from now." I sigh and said okay.


















I wish that there would be world piece. Then the world would always be happy and everybody a agrees. Then thee would be no war and nobody would get hurt. People could agree on prices for things and agree were the live without spending 5 hours a day to figure out the pricing arangement.




2013 new year resolution
In 2013 I would like to work on my hand writing because it looks very sloppy and rushed. I am going to do this by slowing down and taking my tome. the reason that I rush is because i feel like i have to for no reason. I am going to work on that by attempting to slow down just like on my hand writing. i really need to work on my hand writing because i am in 5th grade and i have the hand writing of a 1st grader.

Mandatory Wiki: Due Friday, December 7, 2012
Over the holiday season, many of us are busy shopping for just the right gift for our loved ones. We hunt in catalogs, stores, and online for just the perfect present. For this week's wiki assignment, we will practice using the word choice trait by writing a description of a sweater for sale in a catalog. You may imagine what kind of catalog your sweater would be found in (i.e. catalogs might appeal to skiers, hunters, or those looking for high fashion.) You must use only 50-75 words or less to convince your audience to buy the sweater. In addition, you must use at least one simple sentence, one complex sentence and one compound sentence.
TAP:
Task: Write a 50 word or less description of a sweater for a catalog.
Audience: Your audience will be your peer group.
Purpose: Your sweater description will need to convince your reader to buy the sweater.
(It also will help our word choice trait and force us to look at sentence structure again.)

Dear Mom

Thanlyou for all you have done for me. You have helped me with my math homework, and when I am sick she is always there for me. when I am bored sometimes we will go uotside and bikeride or play catch with a baseball. she is a really good cook and her food is amazing! When I am mad she always understands. she lets me have things that a lot of other kids don't. she is awesome.










GPCA#2

Space. The final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before.


If I could be anybody for a day, I would be Commander William G. Riker of the starship Enterprise. Think of flying around in space with almost no dangers! The reason I would rather be Riker more than Captain Piccard is because I would rather be on the away team than staying on the ship all the time. Another reason it would be fun to be Commander, a.k.a first officer, Riker is because he gets to go on all of the other planets and learn about other life forms. Sometimes Captain Piccard would say number 1 instead of first officer. I would also think it would be cool to have all the technology on the Enterprise. with all of the voice control. The voice control ship log would know the whole alphabet and the dictionary. The coolest part of the Enterprise is the halodeck where you can think of a place anywhere anytime and that room would turn into it. Where would you go on the halodeck?
THE END









GPCA#1
A gooey situation

''Thank you for supporting our structure. It has been very helpful, but we now realize that you have been working for me for about 57 years. We think it is time for you to retire. It is your choice though.'' said the Nucleus.

''I am going to keep working for you,'' said the Cytoplasm.

''Well I hoped it would not come to this.'' said the Nucleus.

''Come down to what?'' replied Cytoplasm.

''We are going to kick you off.'' announced Nucleus.

''Why?''

''You have been here too long.''

''Fine. I will leave.''

''Goodbye.''

The cytoplasm went far away. He rode on the blood cell express. He even climbed through Mount Lungs; he was about 14 centimeters away from the cell.

Meanwhile, at the cell....

''RUN!'' screamed the Nucleus!

''We are getting squished without that cytoplasm guy. He has held up our structure for 57 years.'' said the Nucleus.

''Aw man i forgot my cell.'' said the Cytoplasm.

He gurgled back. Struggling to get there, he saw the cell. He screamed.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

He swished back into the cell and saved the day.

''Whoa, that was close. You are rehired.'' said the Nucleus.

THE END. For now.....................
